Congratulations. All your answers are correct! :-)

I agree totally! Well done!

I'm sorry, but your answers for question #3 and question #6 are incorrect. Here are the correct answers for those questions:

#3. The correct answer is (C) Smile at Cassie when she hands another child a crayon. When using the suggestion to "catch the child being good," you would positively reinforce the desired behavior by smiling at Cassie when she shares and hands another child a crayon. This encourages and reinforces the behavior you want to see.

#6. The correct answer is (A) Children cannot learn without help. One of the reasons why task analysis is needed by children with disabilities is because they often require additional support and guidance in order to learn and complete tasks successfully.

So, the revised list of correct answers would be:

#1. (A) Development is influenced only by maturation.
#2. (D) Changing the antecedent event
#3. (C) Smile at Cassie when she hands another child a crayon.
#4. (B) Does not show them how to behave.
#5. (C) Should be used sparingly.
#6. (A) Children cannot learn without help.

Great effort! Keep up the good work!

Great job! All of your answers are correct.
